Countersunk Flap Braces (1/14/11)

0.8 Hours -

The title says it all…today I countersunk the holes on the bottom of the flap braces where the bottom skins will attach. The corresponding holes in the bottom skin will be dimpled.

I also deburred the edges of the flap braces, but I still need to deburr all of the lightening holes. A small Scotchbrite wheel in my die grinder should make quick work of these.

The flap braces are countersunk on the skin side.
